Brilliant is an overstatement, of course.

First, this is not an affiliate offer. Safari has no affiliate program I know of. This is just a great service I want to share.

This is a brilliant idea, and an awsome implementation. Safari Bookshelf by Oreilly is an online business and technical bookshelf. For a monthly fee, as low as $19.95 for 10 books at a time, you get a rotating bookshelf populated from a list of thousands of titles. They’re not stale titles either. Here are some of the titles on my shelf right now

At $35 to $50 a pop that’s a $200 bookshelf right there, and it’s only part of what I have! And you get to switch a book out after 30 days so you always have the books you need, when you need them, where you need them on the internet; and without the chiropracter bill that comes with carrying them around :-).
